About this app

Block touches on top, bottom, left, right screen in portrait and/or landscape mode.

Buy me a coffee? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.artvoke.edgetouch.donation

They are both the exact same app. Buy this app if you like the app and would love to buy me a coffee. If you do decide to buy me a coffee, please do keep just one of them installed on your device.

## Who is this app for? ##
- If you easily register accidental touches on edge/s when using a curve/bezeless phone
- If you easily register accidental touches on edge/s when holding phone with one/both hand
- If you need to block certain edge/s when playing games such as PUBG, Mobile Legend
- If you need to block certain edge/s for specific Application/s
- If you need to block certain edge/s everywhere except for specific Application/s

## The Noes (*Cause I'm relying on this app myself) ##

- No Ads
- No tracking (That's why it's hard to track crashes)
- No in app purchase
- No battery drain
- No slowing down your phone

- No pretty design and icon :(

## Security note ##
- App does not request internet access. So not possible to receive any data in and/or transmit and data out
- App does not request disk/storage access. So not possible to write and store any data

## App permission ##
- [request delete packages] meant for prompting a dialog to request uninstalling edge touch app when user have both this and donation version installed. This app will not function properly if both of them are installed
- [run foreground service] meant for querying installed applications to allow user select which application/s (when runs in foreground) to enable/disable edge blocking

## Runtime permission ##

Accessibility Service:
Edge Touch blocking functionality depends on accessibility setting. The accessibility setting is used to render views on the screen edges to block unwanted touches. The setting is also used to read the current foreground application package name, system ui and keyboard. This is to allow Edge Touch to remove the rendered view when avoiding them is configured. Edge Touch does not control, read and modify any screen content. Edge Touch does not collect any personal and sensitive data.

These permissions are dangerous as they allow developers to read everything rendered on the screen. Fear not, as mentioned in Security note section, if the app do reads information rendered on the screen, it has no possible way to record and/or sending them out. Feel free to contact developer if you have any concern on this.

If you read this far, buy me a coffee? *TeeHee* https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.artvoke.edgetouch.donation

Two phone cases broke on me within a year so I started raw dogging it. The annoying "bezels are the devil" trend and having no built-in touch rejection feature meant I was constantly accidently touching things on my screen with my palm as I reached across it with my thumb or when I held it while typing. This app is simple, straight forward, does exactly what it says it will do. No ads, and just for that I will buy the donation version. Thank you for this app!

It works good but you can't even adjust it so you can bring down the top panel (brightness, wifi, Bluetooth, etc) you have to try and pull it down several times, resulting in nothing. So you're just there constantly swiping and usually it doesn't drop down. Can't use the top panel in landscape, only portrait. Wish there were no edge at all, tbh.

This was exactly what I needed to combat my ghost touch! Most other apps that disable touch in an area, does not allow anything to be placed on the navigation and notification bar, but this app covers all corners, literally. The app is easy to use and understand at a glance and it's free. I've been browsing for an app like this for about 5 days now and I can say that this is the first of it's kind
